About my Halo 3 numbers:
Again, I'm going off of the fact that Halo has always been uber-strong in the US (sold around 6:1 for Halo 2). Think about it: if Halo 3 had similar legs to Gears of War *after* this week, and no increase/decreases, it'd wind up with another 3.0m units without adding much more than what GOW has done (it's charting to wind up with atleast 3.5m LTD, and could wind up with even more).
But again, if there is no Halo 4, and Hardware stays high, it'll do real well.
About the Forza pack-ins - as much as I would be inclined to agree that a bundled racing game hurting another, it doesn't seem that Motorstorm's bundling hurt Dirt at all (in comparison to the X360 dirt).
I see the offsetting nature of "oh, I already have a racing game" offsetting "oh, I love Forza 2, what other game is like it!?".
Back from the dead, I'm afraid.
